what if one desires money, while he still has the compassion, caring and loving qualities that a "good" person has? this person is just good at making money, so is he a moral man? or is this the balance that you are talking about?
I never personaly said there was something wrong about accumulating wealth. Only if the person has wealth accumulation as a god. All consuming. The focus of his/her life to the exclusion of his/her God and family.

I did present parts of the different Christian opinions though. It is up to you to decide which side of the line you walk, or whether you attempt to straddle them both.


Milamber, thanks mate! Thankyou bro.
